 This was our third time camping at the Miners Standard and it won't be out last.

It's not far from Matlock and there are some great walks nearby.

Staff are helpful and friendly and the pub is reasonably priced.

Reviewer: Natalie9 1 review from this member

 Site very clean, £1 for 2 mins for shower, quickest shower I have ever had.

Down to the weather it was very muddy.

Campsite is on a slope so you will need to keep that in mind.

No WiFi or telly in the pub.

Reviewer: Clotguy 1 review from this member

 Great little site with pub and cafe. Very friendly people.

The site slopes but not too much to cause a problem around the edges.

There is a hard standing area for large motor homes.

Basic but clean toilets and showers. Recommended.

Reviewer: Rachel 2 reviews from this member

 I do like it here but it’s second time out of three trips here I’ve gone and the field has been closed for vehicles. Was told this right after payment.

The field was dry, I was the only one booked on. Pitched my tent in a crap spot so I didn’t have to cart it to my preferred spot like last time.

The next day (Friday) everyone drove on no problem and I was told I could move my car too. Maybe check first if you’re booked on for a weekday and you utilise your car for stuff you need and as shade for your dog.

 Great for a couple of nights, everything you might need.

On a bit of a slope so you’ll need blocks if you want to be in the field in a van which we preferred.

Highly recommended giving this place a visit.

 Arrived Sunday morning and then walked the dog.

When we tried to book for food we were too late.

Winster very nice with good village shop and nice pub.

Didn’t use facilities at pub in evening as it was an awful night !

Can’t say much more as we only used the field to park for the night

Reviewer: Gareth 1 review from this member

 Stayed here for 2 nights for a small school reunion, we're all in our fifties now. Easy to find, food in the Miners standard pub is excellent, and at £7 a night for a tent, was very cheap compared to a lot of Yorkshire Dales / Lakes campsites.

The site is on a slope, not a problem with a small tent, and has great views. It is quite a small field so don't expect space for a kids footie / cricket game.

It was mainly filled with adults, (+40 YO) which worked well for us, and best suits the facilities / space available.

Toilets could do with a bit of TLC, and a light that stayed on whilst you're doing your business. Showers were great, and reasonably priced.

For a small group of adults, who appreciate a beer, good pub food, gentle walks, and a place to sit and talk, it was ideal.

Some great, and gentle, walks from the campsite.

Friend of our group stayed in one of the bell tents, and they are very expensive for what you get.

If you can't get a table in the pub, there's a couple of pubs in the village.

 Good size field with amazing views. Good facilities which were kept clean.

Pub very friendly. Dogs welcome, had some great walks.

Was a very busy weekend and one group in particular were unpleasant playing really loud music on and off until about 3am, flashing lights and lasers and strobes at midnight.

Also the people whose spot I took as they were leaving told me they’d had a good clean up as the people before them had left loads of rubbish including used toilet paper.

They could just do with someone patrolling the site, maybe late morning before arrival times and around 11pm.

Besides the pollution of people this is a really good site and I would visit again.

Reviewer: Cartwr 1 review from this member

 We went here for a 2 night stay as a little break, the location was spot on along with the service we received.

The food the the pub was very good, but you are best booking in advance as gets busy!

The only negative point was a group on the site did not adhere to the no music after 11pm and kept the site awake until 4am, even after been asked by numerous guest to be quite.

Reviewer: Devann 1 review from this member

 Great stay, enjoyed the August Bank holiday, busy but still plenty of space for each pitch.

Nice atmosphere on site, quiet for sleeping. Friendly welcome in the pub.

All you need basic facilities for off grid. Lovely walk close by down into Winster village.

Secure gate to site, plenty of public footpaths for walks nearby.

Reviewer: Kathle 1 review from this member

 The site was nice and the staff were very friendly we had a great weekend break and my daughter also came along in her motorhome with her dog.

The pub was lovely albeit a bit expensive for the food. However this did not put us off eating there.

We will go back hopefully very soon.

You really do need a car to get about as location a bit remote. We did have a car and visited places around so all good with us.

Reviewer: Janepm 1 review from this member

 Excellent site with great, clean facilities: hot showers (£1), toilets, washing up area and chemical toilet point.

Large grass camping field with stunning views over the Derbyshire Dales (£7 pp/pn Aug23), 15 minute walk down to Winster village (small, well stocked shop/ post office with very friendly shopkeeper!). 5 mile walk to Matlock (bit far for us and VERY hilly!)

Beautiful, olde worlde pub with delicious, well-priced food. Staff couldn't have been more friendly (v. Popular with locals - always a good sign!)

Would definitely recommend.

 Basic campsite with lovely views.

Fires and BBQ are allowed which is great.

The campsite was pretty quiet which was nice.

The miners standard pub food was delicious.

Thankyou so much.
